QUOTE(andys @ Sep 8 2010, 11:30 AM)  Though not an SBC, I used stainless mandrel bends and routed the exhaust over the axles. Not sure which muffler shops can weld stainless (perhaps these days they all can), but it's a pretty simple task for a decent shop. There are quite a lot of V8 exhaust system pictures on this site if you search around. I seem to recall a dual inlet/dual outlet Camaro muffler that fits in the original location that looked real nice. Andys That'll never fit! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

QUOTE(pete @ Sep 8 2010, 08:47 AM) I have a Renegade SBC 350 with shorty headers I will soon be installing in my 914. Looking at several threads/pics of this conversion it looks like almost all pipes from the header to the muffler loop under the axles. Is there a stock part number for these curved pipe sections (steel) or are they all basically custom? I bought these inexpensive "Raptor" mufflers on Ebay for about $50 and the resonator tips for $10. The mandrel bends and tubing were also Ebay for less than $100. Just took some cutting, welding and grinding. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) The exhaust ended up being a fun part of the project.    |
